lmfao @ PETA having seizures

Yeah, she’s turning into a goddamn universal character actress.

She was in The Leftovers, as another cult lady, and she’s in The Handmaid’s Tale, in ... actually, I guess that’s something of a similar deal... but all three characters are totally different somehow.

Creepy gal. Like her.

wait. who??

i thought you were talking about james earl jones...

I love how understated James E Jones' performance is in Conan. He scared the shit out of me when I was 11 just by his stare! Now, watching it at age 46, I can see even more how awesome he was , showing so much without language.

Felt like a horror night tonight:


The Exorcist 3
Carrie

They don't make them like this anymore. A lot of fun, good early role for Jeff Bridges, and 70's era/post Man With No Name Clint Eastwood.

Such an underrated film. That moment, with the nurse, is still one of the scariest things I've ever seen.

May or may not make it through all 3 movies for the Back To The Future trilogy tonight.

No, the goddamn... ugh... the lady from Hereditary

Watched IT (2017) over the weekend. Was a pretty big meh-fest, but better than the old teleplay, which has aged SUPER POORLY.


For some reason Amy Adams is not playing the adult version of Beverly in Chapter 2. Jessica Chastain is. Which leads me to believe one thing: Amy Adams was unavailable or just said no.

There’s honestly no other possibility.

but i made that comment in reply to this


JEJ = james earl jones, thulsa doom, hippy cult leader, with the arrow snakes?

anyway lol don’t sweat it

Ha, I have always wanted to rewatch the televised series. I remember it really freaking me out when younger, but I could totally see it not holding up at all nowadays.

Tried watching Bad Times at the El Royale.


It is 2.4 hours long. I made it about 2.1 hours... so stupid. Pointless Tarantino wanna-be with NO skillz at actual plot and story. so fucking dumb. I got progressively angrier at how stupid this movie, its writer, and its director are.

It felt like they killed off Jon Hamm's character because he needed to leave this shitty movie to go film the awesome Good Omens....

Having Chris "Thor" Hemsworth play a Charles manson-esque character in full thor-bod with ripped abs and perfect body grooming, was just a FUCKING DUMB casting decision....

Oh yeah I was talking about James Earl Jones when I said that.

Do it! Conquer your fear! It’s SOOO BAD!

It’s easy to understand how it would upset an 8-year-old, but... looks like a goddamn joke to me now.

48 Hours

I must've watched this a LOT when it came out cos I realised while watching it again that I could recite almost all of Eddie Murphy's lines just before he delivered them. Much to the annoyance, I'm sure, of the person I watched it with who'd never actually seen it before.

I enjoyed this more than Hereditary. One thing I like about Ari Aster's films is that he doesn't flinch away from the horror. Much like Hereditary there a scenes that leave you picking up your jaw.

cbgb (2013)


the subject matter was great but the movie *as a movie* was just meh, so it adds up to okay. alan rickman was great as he usually was, but his presence marred by presentism and dumb concessions to the mainstream, like a character saying (in 1973 or 78 or whatever) that kristal should be drawn “on a pile of CDs” (im sure this didn’t refer to certificates of deposit) or patti smith singing the tune she wrote with springsteen in 1977 in her cbgb debut in 1975. time machines abound here for dramatic effect i suppose. the comic book “highlights” were a bit hammy. still, a joyful subject matter so why not.

followed by

the decline of western civilization (penelope spheeris, 1981)


no alan rickman unfortunately, but a lot better than the above movie. great little documentary really. on criterion.

watched this on 4th with wife. i love this film a lot more as an adult than I did when I first saw it.
